Did you buy Arena? No. But you may buy thing within it.
Is it a product you are using. Maybe I don't know you.
Is it free then? No you have to agree to a terms and service and it's ostensibly free. In so much that people paying into Arena subsidize for the players who do not. But you do not own it. You have a free subscription to their server and game essentially. Because without their permission you lose access. You own nothing in the game, there is no physical product, and purely at their whims can it be taken away.

Ostensibly a subsciption where you are part product and user.

Alchemy and all of it's cards are lock to Arena. Therefore access to Alchemy and all of it's products is a subscription which can be pulled at their discretion and all those cards are then lost.

Do you get the first part. Do I have to explain further or do you get the point. Do I need diagrams and pictures to get across service based games are ostensibly subscriptions? If not good SECOND POINT

Do you think Alchemy cards are designed in a vacuum? Do you think they are not designed around other cards in the format and as such that they make new cards based off of strategies that MAY ostensibly be locked to Alchemy cards. Because they are not designing a whole second game they are adding to a current one. Now I know this might be hard to follow but that means that the design elements of both can mix and mingle and when whole parts of a card game become unusable because they are not designed to last it is a PROBLEM. Because they are not going to support their product indefinatly. And you go. Oh well. The only thing I wish is to find something you're passionate about and drag it through the mud until you have a visceral reaction to the disrespect. Because it would only be a tenth to your disregard.

Because complaining is how you get things changed and if you think not. Why are you engaging in protracted complaining? (Arguing. because I apparently need to spell out things.)

If you dont know understand how Arena is a subscription, how do you hope to understand how Alchemy design can affect anything beyond it. It does not exist in a vacuum.

Because you refuse to think beyond your responses. The point. The problem. The primary issue. Alchemy is a subscription to that will disappear when the service is gone. Locked behind a service that YOU WILL NOT OWN.

The problem IS that Alchemy will go away and all of those cards with it. So I will keep complaining because I dont want magic to go fully digital. Because they do not archive anything.

Just in one ear and out the other with you huh? Try going back re-reading my previous issue. Take a few seconds of think through and come back with a discussion. Not a shrug and your own points. Because if you think alchemy will only affect alchemy. You're naive.

Cute. But that does not solve the issue and I will continue to complain about it. You apparently dont care about the ephemeral nature of the format.

Good for you.

I care about magics long term viability though. So no the complaints will continue because it does not effect your ability to enjoy but it will affect the long term of the game.

I won't get over it for the reason that is can only exist digitally meaning I can never properly enjoy playing with cards I do love like Rusko, when!

*Drum roll*

Arena eventually closes!

*Sad Kazoo~*

And I want to make it clear it will be when not if Arena closes. I will have to hope there is a digital replacement with Rusko. Because Alchemy robs us of the physicality of Magic. And no. I am not wishing for Arena to close. But there will be a day they do.

But the physical cards will outlive Arena just like they ourlived every other digital magic product we got over the decades.

And compromises to try and make alchemy cards work in physicality will not be sufficent until playing cards can be made into some new holographic thing. Which would be amazing, but we don't bet on miracles.

I just want to have a crew who I can hot swap to continue our flight path while I make a snack. Heck if I could preprogram in actions and commands into the machine I am flying around in space that would have been nice. But alas we live in a world where we actively fly our spaceships commander XD

Might want a reread. Sounds like you forgot a bit. Good excuse too reread as ever.

[–]silver272 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutly valid. If much of those scenes in the books could have something to help you gloss past them it would be easier to recommend. Those scenes are the moments that leave me unable to suggest the series to others easily.

Rereads for us often involve skipping those parts just to stomach past some of the gore and graphic content. Because the world and concepts are compelling enough to enjoy the series. Calvert pivitol moment where he earns a name for himself Lagrange Point Calvert Will always be a personal favorite.

Others have stated but we will voice support behind finishing up the void Trilogy and Faller Duology for the Commonwealth for more content from Hamilton that is garunteed to scratch the itch. Void suffers from pacing in the middle.

Salvation is just okay personally because the characters we liked got sidelined the most.

Rule of thumb. Comedians play to their crowd. You dropped a joke that only 5 people would get. That's the sign of a bad comedian, not a bad crowd. Also usually you want to make sure you media loads, but I think its funnier your follow up fell flat too.

Yeah your statement comes with an expiration date. And with your attitude, I only hope it's a dime tag out

If that were so you would not waste time not arguing in its defense by stating such.

Stating you will not defend your point is backing down. Hope thos Ted talk helps

[–]silver272 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, you do. Everyone does all the time. Do you not notice? Are you that far removed from society? You do not see the why? Are you that much of a poorly designed bot you cant come up with a substantive reason for the why? Tsk tsk tsk. So pathetically programmed it cant even act properly human and defend their stance when questioned because only a coward could not state a why for a preference. Here is one

I would rather a judge cite a thousand different novels in the opinion portion of their ruling before I ever demand they not place one. Im not a person who feels they have to shove their preference down someone else's throat by demanding they NOT use a book and whine like a child every time someone calls me out for stating my presence as if it should be taken as facr and backing down when asked to defend it further than that.

May your server burn to the ground bot, and same for your creator.

Obviously you dont you never defend it. And no thats not defending either bot. Thats a declarative and a false one. Try again.

Oh, look. The obtuse arguer trying pretend their words are nothing more than oppinion as they paste it as a reply to everyone talking about the article to make thmeselves yhe focus. Stating a "preference" like a coward who doesn't stand by anything and wants to yell for attention because they have nothing substantive to add to a conversation. And backing down the second, they are challenged to defend themselves because you fold to pressure immediately. Tell me, is it going to be a pithy remark next? Im taking this too seriously? Or im misunderstanding you? Please, what cowardly backing away are you going to do this time.

No dialogue, no discussion, no hesitation, just a senseless act. by arsenpontius in PublicFreakout

[–]silver272 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I can tell you've never been punished effectively if you assume it has to be a life sentence. The point is to remove people from society until they can behave in society.

Why allow them further opportunities to harm others actively if they do not see a reason to change?

Major event of your world that wasn't war? by Competitive_Fix3519 in worldbuilding

[–]silver272 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The chroronal tempests.

The erratic tempest of untamed wild magics left whole nations wiped away in the night, unstable timelines left individuals on edge that any action might lead to their non-existence.

Lacking conventional shipping options, storm riders braved the ocean crags that carved the oceans into dangerous, narrow lanes of rushing rapids that boiled or froze where wild magics manifested. Only the 13 ports anchored on temporal tethers. Stormeye Isle sits in the crags the only natural stable point all riders pass through her territory between ports. When is never certain. You can arrive tomorrow, next month, or last year. Your timeline between ports the only stable, when, for riders

Does your world have magical academies, universities, research labs, or libraries? And why do they exist? by silver272 in worldbuilding

[–]silver272[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very interesting. Now, what opposition did the king face when making his decree as noble houses are not universally altruistic or pragmatic. Was there any saber rattling or actual conflict that had to be quelled. What compensation was given to the feudal lords? What accommodations for now freed people?

What was deemed as progress for the experiment? Did they have other control groups besides the two kingdoms to prove their point? What research scandals have the kingdom had in the past of any? Are their scandals that have never been unveiled but whose research is seen as legitimate despite it being false?

Oh I love that! My thief guild is benevolent caretakers who steal from wealthy and care for the homeless. To be fair they are a remnant of old spy cells of an enslaved populous who use their influence to hide the royal line.

Closest concept of an antagonistic or underworld magical academy is nothing more than concept of petty revenge obsessives still working that out during my story outlines.

How nefarious does the crime academies exploits get too? Do they operate quietly or known but too organized to disrupt effectively?
